Chase and Smith from California

What’s been the best thing about our trip so far?
Chase - Going to the beach. I got a gun! (Bamboo washed up on shore with a handle) And going in the pool.
Smith - Nothing.

Which hotel or house have you liked the best?
Chase - Great Wolf Lodge ! (But that was a different trip) Oh - Embassy Suites Hotel! I got to watch basketball! (5 TVs in the restaurant)
Smith - This one! It’s like a house. I liked Inn By the Harbor a lot too because there was a kitchen.

What has been the most fun thing we’ve done so far?
Chase - Shooting my gun at a garbage truck and a train.
Smith - Played on our iPads!

What else do you want to say?
Chase - I miss my daddy.
Smith - I got nothing.

What do you think about our plans for the rest of our stay in California?
Chase - It is good because we get to walk around a lot, we may go back to the museum and we can see where hotness is (thermal-touch fabric). I like cereal. I want to go to the beach again.
Smith - Good because I like flying on airplanes.

Extemporaneous time:
Chase: This house and hotels that we went to are really nice and I got stuck in an elevator one time. A man helped us open the doors. I stopped crying after we got out. I like to sleep here the stairs are kind of weird. My brother used to sleep up there but he got on an airplane ride to my grandma’s house and grandpa’s house. Good thing the Eagles won against the Vikings. The final score was 7 to 38.

Smith: I liked Inn by the Harbor and the guest house. Going to the Grand Canyon was fun because I liked to see it. Seeing Aunt Kim was fun. We got to go to the park. I liked going on the sky level at the museum. I liked playing with water pumps.

Boys practicing typing time:
Chase: my dog is gone my cat is gone I miss them I. Miss daddy. There are only 3 people in this house.
Smith: I was so sad that the Vikings lost against the Eagles the Score was 38 to7 Eagles the Best thing I did was going to the Guest house.
I am happy that Alabama won against George 26 to 23 Alabama .

In March 2017, I was a bigwig at a big, fancy financial firm in St. Paul, Minnesota. I had left clinical medicine six years prior because of the growing mountain of bureaucratic hassles involved with taking care of people. I had dabbled in medical media and found that while I did not enjoy the game of television, I did get a lot of satisfaction out of explaining medicine to non-physicians. I landed the job at the financial firm in 2011 and I thought "Why not?" Over the first four years in that job, the way medical information is used to determine the cost of financial products was taught to me by experts. I analyzed cases and reports and presented scientific conclusions intended to improve the business and increase profits. My performance was rewarded with a promotion to Chief. It all seemed natural at the time, but very quickly, as the time I had for case review dwindled and the administrative tasks increased, I hated my job.

I’ve never claimed to be a Supermom, but I did feel like I could handle this challenge - hang out in California for a month with my kids alone. How hard can that be?? I love these kids with every fiber of my being. It’s a month.

The 24/7 of it, with no friends for any of us and no school or diversions for them has proven quite challenging. It took me three hotels, even “suite” hotels to figure out we needed more space if the four of us were going to co-habitate, so this time I rented a house. Still, the call to squabble was apparently too strong for my darling boys to resist.

My mother offered to fly Grant to DC and to keep him there for 10 days. He is in full tween swing and instigates the majority of the arguments in the house, so with those things in mind as well as his never-dying devotion to his Lola, I agreed, thankfully. But the minute he walked with the flight attendant down the jetway by himself in his pink unicorn pajamas, I cried.
